Transcatheter closure has become the leading approach for closure of most instances of patent ductus arteriosus. However, there are some complications associated with this procedure. We report a case involving the embolization of a device in the right pulmonary artery during placement. A 20-year-old woman was referred to our hospital for percutaneous transcatheter closure of patent ductus arteriosus. During the deployment of an Amplatzer duct occluder device, it was disconnected from the connector and became embolized in the lower branch of the right pulmonary artery. We could not grasp the device with a gooseneck snare. After various attempts, the device was captured and removed by a BiPal bioptome endomyocardial biopsy forceps. Based on our findings, we recommend that endomyocardial biopsy forceps should be considered as an alternative when such complications occur.
